My [MODE] button is loose. It still works, so I assume the tact switch underneath is unharmed,
but the clear button wiggles around now...

I think I found one here..

Is that the right guy?
How is the install, pretty straight forward,
or is there soldering involved?
Looks like it just drops (or snaps) in place...


Oh yea. I think my WINDOW button may be going out too.
I have to "encourage" it several times before it will function.
So I'm thinking it may actually have a tact switch problem. (Strictly a guess)
I may as well fix that while I have my box open.
I've never soldered anything before. How complex of an operation are we talking about here?
Any recommended plan of action?



Thanks for any help...

i had that same problem you might not want to do what i did so im not advising you just informing you . the mode button is the same as "Q" link and the other clear one i think its window im not lookin at it so im not 100% i just opend up my mpc and switched em out with one i dont use as much. once again im not telling you to do it. i woulnt want to tell you to do something to void your warranty. or disable your equipment but its a simple procedure any legit shop should be able to perform to get you by until you buy some new buttons .

I didn't see the MODE type button there.

I checked there first.

Maybe I missed it somehow?
